Hey,
So I'm new to this forum (as in having an account) but have used this forum multiple times before. My question is fairly simple/straightforward (I think).
I'm currently a sophomore in college. Over this past summer I realized I wanted to become a doctor and go into the field of medicine. My freshmen year I was a finance/math double major. When I realized that I wanted to become a doctor, I completely redid my schedule for the fall semester. Basically I doubled up on science/premed prereq courses. Unfortunately, I am not doing as well as I hoped.
I am already aware of the the overall gpa and the bcpm gpa. But my freshmen year gpa in combination with this semesters gpa (aniticated gpa anyways) is low and I will have to pull this up. My question is do med schools take into account my performance in business courses in the sense that they will look more into how I did in my science courses. I don't know, I just feel like I may have closed the door on med school for me.
Any helpful/insightful responses are welcomed, and thank you in advance to all responses.
p.s. As of right now my gpa is around a 3.1 (I know this is bad in terms of the premed scale).
